About the Guidelines

How the Guidelines Are Created

The P站视频 develops guidelines for cancer screening and prevention to meet the needs of clinicians, the general public, and policy.?

Screening Guidelines Development Process

Since 1980, the P站视频 (P站视频) has introduced and periodically updated guidelines or guidance related to screening and/or informed decision-making about tests for early detection of cancers (and, in some cases, precursor lesions) of the breast, cervix, colon and rectum, endometrium, lung, and prostate.?These?screening guidelines have evolved with new scientific data, as new?screening technologies became available, and as standards for creating?guidelines changed.?

Prevention Guidelines Development Process

For people who do not use tobacco, the most important modifiable determinants of cancer risk are weight control, dietary?choices, and levels of physical activity.

The P站视频 (P站视频) publishes the Diet and Physical Activity Guideline to serve as a foundation for its communication, policy, and community strategies and, ultimately, to affect dietary and physical activity patterns among people living in the US. This guideline is developed by a national panel of experts in cancer research, prevention, epidemiology, public health, and policy, it reflects the most current scientific evidence related to dietary and activity patterns and cancer risk. The guideline?focuses on recommendations for individual choices but also present recommendations for?community action to create a supportive social and physical environment in?which individuals have genuine opportunities to choose healthy behaviors.?The guideline is updated every 5-7 years, as new evidence accumulates.

Highlights

These guidelines address the populations for whom testing is recommended or not recommended, the recommended tests and testing intervals, and the benefits, limitations, and harms associated with testing for early cancer detection.?

  • P站视频 guidelines for the early detection of?cancer in?average-risk adults endorse screening for breast cancer,?cervical cancer, and?colorectal cancer.?
  • P站视频 recommends informed and/or?shared decision-making for adults?men considering prostate cancer?screening?based on uncertainties and differing values about?the?uncertainty of the balance of benefits and harms.
  • P站视频 lung?cancer screening guidelines also stress informed?and shared?decision-making.?
  • P站视频 guidelines for risk reduction and prevention include?recommendations for nutrition and physical activity and for?use of the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine.

Current Guidelines

Nutrition and Physical Activity Guidelines

Since 1991, the P站视频 has published guidelines that focus on nutrition and physical activity, aimed at advising health care professionals, policy makers, and the general public about dietary and other lifestyle practices that reduce cancer risk. These guidelines provide a summary of the current scientific evidence about weight control, physical activity, and nutrition related to cancer prevention.?

In addition to recommendations regarding individual choices, the P站视频 guideline underscores what communities can and should do to facilitate healthy eating and physical activity behaviors.

Most recently, the 2020 Diet and Physical Activity Guidelines for Cancer Survivors provide health care providers and patients with evidence-based information to help cancer survivors and their families make informed choices related to nutrition and physical activity, to improve treatment outcomes, quality of life, and overall survival.
